      Zmatky provázející komunikaci mezi pracovníky věznice a záchranáři značně zpozdily poskytnutí lékařské péče vražedkyni Christě Pikeové, která v americkém státě Tennessee při neúspěšném pokusu o popravu minulý měsíc přežila podání dvou smrtících injekcí. Vedení věznice trvalo od prvního oznámení přes půl hodiny, než záchranářům potvrdilo, že žádost o lékařskou pomoc je skutečná. S odvoláním na záznamy z nouzové linky na to v úterý upozornila agentura AP.
